your 3bet is far too small !!!!!
you are oop in tha hand so you dont want to see 3 calls behind you but you want to play headsup or win the hand preflop.
i would 3bet to 7k and call if somebody shoves on me then.
with your small raise you have a tough spot now he shoves on you because you do not get too good odds to make the call.
so you might get away from it but your raise is really far too small.

Yep, your 3bet is too small. You should 3bet there 8k and call a shove to this loose guy. 3,30r, 5,5r, 8,80r, 11r are tournaments where are a lot of donks, gamblers who like to ship their hands even after the rebuy period. What else? There are a lot money in the pot, you might be squeezing light there. Im not folding there AK, even with 40bbs.

What did you do in this spot? What he had? :)

yea have same thoughts about those MTT , my mistake is that i 3bet that little i was MT and dint see the pot size ,
btw he wasn't a donk :f_frown: i check his stas later he is big MTT winer,
- any way if u see the action 3 hands before he was obviously setting a trap for that utg guy, and in this given situation with very short stack behind him he slow played AA, gg him. i figured out couse i have AK is less possible for some1 to have AA-KK couse i have blockers + the way the action goes before i 3 bet and given the fact that i 3 bet very small ( which in some1 eyes can be seen as very strong or very weak...) i was thinking that he will shove there AJs+ 99+ and imo AK is doing good vs that range so i make a call (i actually put him on TT-QQ, AQ+) and see the bad news
